You will all get your iPhones launch day. Apple pull this same trick year after year. This is not a super cycle. You will alll have your shipping dates brought forward.Seems like most poll results show not many got 9/19 delivery dates.
I have never seen it give another date within 1-2 minutes of the store going live. The ONLY hope I have for a launch day is it shows me as 9/25 and all others show a date range vs a specific date. So who knows.
Orange Max 9-19 and ATT app as usual opened up about 13 minutes early so was in and out by 7:51 EST
I had a cancel button at the bottom of my order.
Isn’t that what it already shows. There’s were users with Sept 24-Sept 29th and then us with Sept 25th.
The fact that Apple USA orders for Pro Max all have a single date, (9/25) makes me believe that production for it got started too late. Single dates are normally only used for release day.
Makes me wonder if 9/25 is the unofficial PM release date for USA.
Normally once you move into group 2 and beyond, they give you a date range.

What makes me mad about my 9/25 date 1 minute after the store opened, is as of now (11:23am EST) the AIR is still available for launch day delivery. HOW is that possible but the Orange PM slips 1 minute in? Can someone make sense of this?
If I did my order as a fresh order, I would have had the 19th delivery date.
I explored all available options and had three configurations ready in advance, logged in on both my computer and iPhone. The online store opened first, followed shortly by the app.
Unfortunately, none of the Silver, Orange, or Blue phone options were available for Oregon delivery on 9/19 in any storage size. Every option showed delivery dates of 9/25 or later.
Since I leave for Hawaii at 3 a.m. on 9/23, I was considering picking up at Ala Moana Center, which is within walking distance of where I will live when I'm there. The option I picked is driving to Bridgeport Village on 9/19, though I had trouble reserving a timeslot. Each attempt pushed me later in the day until I landed at 2:30 p.m. on 9/19, and delivery on that date was never available.
I am also concerned about my AirPods Pro 3 delivery scheduled for 9/19, as I may not be home when FedEx or UPS arrives. I plan to create a signature waiver once shipment confirmation is available, unless the package arrives before I leave.
Sucks about no 9/19 delivery for me, oh well!

I can't take that chance, as I fly out 9/23 and can't risk a 9/25 delivery in hopes of Apple moving it to 9/19. I created a pick-up instead.
Looking online the delivery dates (if ordering new) is pushing out to Mid October or a 1TB Orange ProMax and zero pick up options at any Oregon Apple Stores, so glad I locked mine in for 9/19 pick up.
this is the first year that my pre-preorder worked, the past years was laggy and took more time. Last year, thanks that i started the process from a second device from scratch, i was able to place an order right after 5am (PT), while the pre-preorder on my other device still was loading. This year with all honesty, i think was glitchy too, i was not able to place the order for pickup from my used-to apple store because there was none available (again at 5am), then at 6am entered to see (just curiosity) and the were available for pick up at all nearby apple stores. I was so mad and i couldn't cancel because used a $500 gift card. Its 15 mins more driving but, it is what it is....
Yes. For my 15 Pro Max, for example, it said it would be delivered by October 7th when I pre-ordered it. Then I got the email saying it shipped on Sept 21, and it arrived Sept 27th.
No preorder. I need to handle and test these devices before deciding an upgrade from 16PM is warranted. Plus I am not thrilled by any of the Pro color choices so I need to hands-on look at them and decide which is the least offensive to me.

IMO "multiple delivery and in store pick ups ordered" is rude and inappropriate. That kind of behavior makes Apple less efficient and costs all of us.
When I was going through the process, the date said 19th. But then in my email it says the 25th. I ordered the 17 pro max silver 2TB.
But I got the 19th for the pro max 1tb cosmic orange for in-store pickup and I got in 2 min after the store opened
Pro is same boat pre order prep day of and in the site right at launch. They gave IUP the middle finger…. Again. In the past they always made it right.
Got myself the 17 PM with delivery on 19/9, just 6 minutes in. Haven’t received an email yet, but so far everything seems fine in my account. Absolutey stoked for next Friday!
